SCISSORS

At the occupation forces' Container checkpoint near Bethlehem on the morning of Wednesday April 22nd

Look at what the occupied
have to use against
their occupiers - scissors!

And you, who shout
that the killers today
"Are just defending themselves"
- against scissors -

you claim that if the chains
would be broken, if the oppressed
would be given their freedom,
their oppressors would suffer...

So, you say, liberty must be denied,
to preserve the safety of those
who stamp on it
with their military boots.

How weak are these household gods
in uniform of yours, raised on a pedestal,
when scissors and liberty both
are a danger to them!
